There's not a lot more important we can ask our MPs to focus on than what they can actively do to slow the climate crisis.

MPs walk back into the Commons today with a choice: serve constituents, or serve oil majors.

#Jackdaw & #Rosebank don't bring "energy security". They're bring fire, more floods, more deaths, locked in for decades.

🛑 Stop new extraction
🌱 Protect ecosystems
🔬 Let science lead, not lobbying

6/ 💀 NEW OIL & GAS = MORE DEATHS "Climate change is increasingly destabilising the... systems... on which human life depends" — Lancet Countdown, 2025 UK heatwaves this year killed an estimated 2,700+ people. 42% of those deaths are attributed to human-caused warming.

🔥 NEW OIL & GAS = MORE FIRES

Hotter, drier conditions mean wildfires spread faster & burn longer.

Attribution scientists repeatedly find human-caused #climate change to be a key driver of deadly wildfires.

NASA data shows extreme fires are getting bigger and more frequent.
